16 Bradstone Old Town Conservation Paving DOMESTIC PRODUCTS Bradstone Old Town Conservation Paving Bradstone Old Town Chelsea Cobble The Bradstone Old Town Conservation range of paving, which is available in three sizes, has eco-friendly credentials to help conserve the environment. Each paving slab contains up to 85% recycled and reclaimed aggregates. The brindled grey-brown paving stones have the seasoned appearance of ageless natural stone with random subtle tooled surface profiles. The random colour mix adds to its authenticity. The product has fettled edges to allow the use of the paving as step treads or as pier caps. SUSTAINABILITY CRITERIA Old Town Conservation Paving comprises 85% recycled material, 45% of which is recycled crushed slabs and the remaining 40% china clay waste.

It also won the Best New Hard Landscaping Product at the Garden Industry Manufacturers Awards 2006. Old Town Chelsea Cobble features over 20 different sizes of cobble arranged in 450x450mm random edged paving to provide a completely random effect with hidden joints. It is available in two shades - Grey-Green and Weathered Limestone. SUSTAINABILITY CRITERIA Contains up to 85% recycled and reclaimed aggregates, thus reducing waste which would otherwise go to landfill and the use of virgin raw materials.

Taking its inspiration form the volcanic rock formations found in Lanzarote, each paving slab carries an Old Town Profile and resembles individual cobbles. The product was specially developed to contain recycled content to complement the sustainable Rainwater Harvesting System also featured on the garden. The Rainwater Harvesting System operates by collecting rainwater, filtering out debris through Bradstone’s specialist patio, aggregates and Geofilter, then storing it in a holding tank for a variety of non-drinkable applications.
18 ASPHALT Bardon Superflex Bardon Superflex is a superior sustainable binder course asphalt material developed to extend the performance gap found in existing generic products. The asphalt mixture is highly engineered using advanced polymer binder technology to provide long-term engineering best value for new construction or for the maintenance of existing pavements. SUSTAINABILITY CRITERIA Reduced mixing temperature by up to 30ºC degrees resulting in less consumption of fossil fuels in the production process and subsequently lower CO 2 emissions, while reducing exposure to bitumen fumes for operatives. It also increases lifespan of product in comparison with conventional surfaces resulting in less long term requirements for primary aggregates production and transportation of product and disposal waste asphalt. Case Study Chapel Ash, Bardon Superflex Chapel Ash, in Wolverhampton, is a major commuter road into Wolverhampton from the South West. Wolverhampton Council had noticed cracking of the surfacing during their routine inspections and sought advice on the best materials to use for repairs. Bardon Superflex has provided this area with a high degree of flexibility combined with significantly enhanced fatigue life, whilst retaining a high level of resistance to permanent deformation. It also offers a much quieter surface, dramatically reducing road noise at night, which is less intrusive on both the environment and the residents’ everyday lives.

It can either be laid thinly for short-run cost benefits or at normal road base thickness for enhanced whole life costs. SUSTAINABILITY CRITERIA Bardon Superstructure uses advanced polymer technology to provide best resistance to fatigue and deformation, increased durability and reduced consumption of primary aggregate. Bardon Superbase is a new generation base and binder course asphalt designed to offer high levels of resistance to permanent deformation in a mixture that can be produced and laid to give a low risk of segregation. SUSTAINABILITY CRITERIA Bardon Superbase provides increased durability and best performance against fatigue and deformation, reducing the requirement for repairs using primary aggregate. Case Study A1 Darrington to Dishforth, Yorkshire, Bardon Superbase and Hitex The A1 through Yorkshire forms part of a strategic link in the national network between Scotland, the north-east and the south of England. The challenge was to provide a binder course asphalt material that could support very high volumes of traffic without undue deformation. The laid material had to be constructed so that it was impermeable and provided protection to the lower bound materials. Modern thin surfacings are now the surface material of choice because of their user benefits, such as low noise and low spray. These materials can be regarded as semi-permeable and therefore the impermeability of the binder course layer is today of greater importance. Bardon Superbase14 was laid as the binder course layer, 50mm thick on top of a 28mm DBM50 base, with Bardon Hitex as the surface material. The overall pavement was designed as a flexible composite and used cement bound material in the lower base layers.
